smaller sized box ? 

(A)  15  (B)  37 (C)  27 (D)  17 (E)  None of these.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(D) 17

Step-by-step explanation:

If we divide the largest box with the box smaller than that then the answer would be 3

i.e. 459/153 = 3

and similarly 153/51 = 3 as well

so If we want to know the peices in the smallest box we should divide 51/3 which will equal to 17
